FRIDAY UPDATE
10.30am The coaches have left Lagganlia at 10:30am. We estimate they will be at Tumbles by 1.15pm
Day 4- The sun has been shining and every activity group has come back with stories to share.
With the weather being so good, several groups were out canoeing today. Some groups had treats around campfires, others went on the dry ski slope or climbed up trees (wih helmets and harnesses, of course)!
We can’t believe that it is already Thursday afternoon and this was our last day of activities.
Our dinner choices tonight include burger and chips or fish and chips… yum!
Time to get packing soon…
Wednesday
A wonderful day today full of snow showers and sunshine. Pupils had a full day of activities including: bush-craft, mountain biking, canoeing, archery, orienteering, gorge walking, bouldering, rock climbing and abseiling. We are all looking forward to our full final day tomorrow.
6pm Tuesday
Our first full day of activities has been packed full! It helped that we all had a big breakfast to give us energy for the day ahead. Some of us were gorge walking today and got VERY wet! Some of us went canoeing and abseiling too. 2 groups helped to plant native trees in the National Park and hope to come back one day to see how they have grown.
